The cover letter introduces you to the employer and indicates which position you are applying for. It should also go into some detail about your interest to work for the company, your qualifications for the position, why you are a great candidate, and summarize the main highlights of your past experience as it relates to the position you’re applying for.

A resume is like a quick advertisement that summarizes and promotes your qualifications and accomplishments. The resume is a selling tool that outlines your skills, education, and work experiences so an employer can see, at a glance, how you can contribute to the employer's workplace.

Your resume should speak to how you fit with the position (and company) that you’re applying to and should be tailored to each position, using keywords and phrases from the job posting.

Make heavy use of action verbs and display content in a flattering/organized manner so an employer may quickly review the content.
